Re: My grandparents had one of those!
Well small world...this one was my grandpa's! Mom kept it cause it reminded her of him and she could remember using it when she helped out at his store.

Wacky
I miss my adding machine with a tape - that provide you with a printed list (perhaps not with the handle though).  I'm often adding up a long series of numbers and usually end up doing it twice to double check myself and I always come up with a different total.   At least with the tape you can cross check the numbers to see where you screwed up.

How about an abacus? It makes nice clicking sounds too, when the little balls hit together.
